Darling Nikki

Former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley became the first Republican after Donald Trump to announce her candidacy for her party's 2024 presidential nomination.

She says it's time to bring a new generation of leadership to the White House.

New generation of leadership . . . new leadership . . . yeah, I've heard that line before.  It's been used most often by presidential candidates who go on to become hasbeens.

In fact, Haley is a new kind of leader.  The new Nikki Haley is running against Trump.  The old Nikki Haley said he wouldn't run for President in 2024 of Trump did.  The new Nikki Haley highlights her experience as governor of South Carolina. The old Nikki Haley served as the United Nations ambassador in the Trump administration, the most xenophobic presidential administration in American history.  The new Nikki Haley complains about "bullying" from the American left and promises to kick back in high heels.  The old Nikki Haley opposed Trump, a bully himself, in the 2016 presidential election by supporting Marco Rubio for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination and later Ted Cruz.   The new Nikki Haley says that America is not a racist country.  The old Nikki Haley was born Nimrata Randhawa, going by her nickname and married surname because . . . who in America would vote for Nimrata Randhawa for President?

Oh, yeah, then there's this . . .

In other words, Nikki Haley comes across as the same old type of Republican.
